Where did you go? Encouraging female participation within Red Hat, Inc.Whittier, Jeremy, Kalel,Christina R. 05 1900 (has links)
Edited by Dr. Brandy A. Brown and Romi C. Wittman / As U.S.-based companies continue to struggle to fill science, engineering and technology (SET)
positions with domestic talent, a large portion of the available workforce (women) continues to be
underrepresented. This project discusses the strategic advantages of encouraging female workforce
participation in SET roles within global technology companies. Three publicly traded companies -
Netflix, Facebook and Red Hat, Inc. - are compared utilizing self-reported diversity numbers to see
the varying levels of women in those workplaces. The diversity policies and benefits programs of these
three companies are discussed as well as available corporate statements regarding workforce diversity
policies. Finally, utilizing information from programs proven to increase women’s participation and
retention within SET roles, suggestions are provided, namely sponsorship of women in the workplace.
